Senior Kelsey Ray Awarded Prestigious Translation Scholarship

Posted: September 30, 2014

Congratulations to Kelsey Ray, a senior in College Scholars with a focus on comparative literature, German, Russian and translation, who has received a scholarship in the amount of $1,500 to attend the American Translators Association annual conference in Chicago on Nov. 5-8. A faculty committee in MFLL selected her on the basis of a letter of interest detailing her background in translation and her expectations for attending the conference.
The scholarship was made possible by Melissa Field, a German graduate and alumna of UT, who is a professional translator and a member of MFLL’s Advisory Board.
